I would only request that Dr Lechty not be quite so scientific. I know alot about my issues, but don't need to know all the nerve groups etc. It was interesting but not needed or wanted. I wasn't sure how to say it to her. I love her otherwise. Final, overall visit was productive and ended well.

Doctor Kara lifty is always prepared and knowledgeable about recent additions to my medications and is updated on lab work results period when She orders blood work or other tests she always gets the results posted to MyChart in a timely manner. The good samaritan hospital pain clinic staff is always polite courteous and professional when and working with me on my health care needs and related matters(like updating forms or reviewing current medications). I appreciate that Doctor Lichty asks questions to clarify what is going on currently with my pain status and listens intently to my answers asking questions for clarification or more details and she needs to. When presenting new ideas ideas or suggestions for medications she is very thorough and explaining why she has chosen this particular medication as the best option for me too try.
